Rob Curnow, Two Singles - 8

On
this night, though, Curnow seemed to awaken, if just for one night.
Curnow picked up two singles, helping Spokane to a 5-1 win, The Spokesman-Review wrote.

"The first six guys in the order have been doing the job," Spokane manager Steve Lubratich told The Spokesman-Review after the victory. "But for us to move, we need the bottom part of the order to get going."

For
the catcher Curnow, he never really did get going. He ended the year
with a .214 batting average. That ended up being the best average of his
three-season professional career.

Curnow's career began that year in 1988, taken by the Padres in the 35th round of the draft out of Cal Poly Pomona. Curnow is also known as Bob Curnow.

Curnow moved to single-A Waterloo in 1989. There, he got into 56 games.
He hit two home runs, recording an average of just .167. He also got a
brief look at AA Wichita. He went 1 for 8 there in four games.

For
1990, Curnow played at single-A Charleston. In 63 games, he hit just
.197. He singled and stole second to set up a run in a May game. It was
his final year as a pro.
